The Frank Islam Athenaeum Symposia is excited to announce our Spring 2018 Speaker Series. The Spring 2018 theme is "Learning from History." As we explore the social, cultural, economic, and political factors influencing the Boko Haram Islamist uprising in Nigeria, Ronald Reagan's "New Republican Party," the rise and fall of Richard Nixon, and climate change, we seek to highlight the lessons important for today's increasingly diverse society.

We would also like to thank Joanne Bagshaw for her work co-coordinating the Athenaeum events this past semester. Dr. Bagshaw will be on sabbatical in Spring 2018 and will be working on several academic books. We are grateful for her contributions and wish her luck in her writing endeavors!
